Paul McCartney 2016 Rumors

HaileyMcComet:
New Mexico is beautiful, but Paul doesn't need more fresh air. I'm sure he gets plenty. He should come to China. There are plenty of masks.
That is the hard lesson I am learning. Fresh air, mountains, rivers, desert vistas, and beautiful sunsets will only get you so far.

Any rumour about Paul playing in Europe around May?
Hopefully! Spain, Belgium, Italy, Germany and more was skipped on the last Europe OutThere tour leg. May-June will be great to complete it, maybe even with a new tour!

I think he doesn't go to China because people there eat cats and dogs.

In 2016 will pass three years since he was first and last time in Poland
I hope he will return to Germany at least.

May the Force be with those of us who will try to score tickets next year!

Hopefully the UK too. Well, when I say, "UK" I guess he'll probably only play a few dates in England again but at least it's not too far from us in Scotland or those in Wales and Northern Ireland to travel for the show.

Well, people eating cows and pigs hasn't stopped him going to Argentina or Brazil (or anywhere else for that matter)

I read he came up with the idea for Meat Free Mondays while driving through New Mexico. Maybe that is why he won't play here.

It may not stop him from playing there, but he has definitely protested about it!

I think he protests more about the treatment of the animals. Didn't he do a promo against bullfighting (while in South America) recently?

He has been against animal abuse and eating meat for decades.

Yes, we all know that. But this was more in response to China/dogs & then meat/SA.

Rumors are getting a bit stronger about Paul's possible 2016 Brazilian tour. Apparently the plan is for the concerts to happen before the Olympic games turn into the main focus, but ultimately it's up to his schedule. Adding to that the fact that a few big stars have already confirmed stadium concerts between Fabruary and early April, I'm guessing his concerts (if confirmed) would be in late April / early May.

Isn't Brazil now in an intractable recession?

Not for pop/rock concerts, apparently: Pear Jam (last month), The Stones (next February), Maroon 5 (next March) and Coldplay (next April) have all been able to sell out stadiums quite quickly when tickets went on sale recently. Add to that Paul's absence this year (which has increased the demand for tickets) and he will have no trouble selling out a couple of stadiums after those other artists are gone.

I hope that's not the reason. I'd be very disappointed if he were that stupid.

I would love to see him do a tour of places like China, India, Egypt, Cuba, Africa and Southeast Asia. I wonder why he hasn't gone there yet: lack of local promoters willing to pay his fee? Fear (either from him or from the promoters) of not selling enough tickets? Other (non-financial) reasons? Also, when he puts a tour together, he usually either: 1) goes to a few countries in the same region or 2) does a few shows in the same country As it would not be a good business decision (or financially viable) to bring all his equipment and staff to do a single concert in a single country. Maybe his tour manager hasn't been able to make either of these options happen in those regions yet?

I suspect Paul does not play some of those places for the same reason he doesn't play New Mexico: it would not be as financially lucrative as playing another place.
